Veteran musician, Amakye Dede, has named Kiki Banson, as the person who gave him the crown to bestow on Kuami Eugene.
During the 2019 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA), Amakye Dede was captured on stage crowning Eugene as the ‘King of Future Highlife’.
Recently, he alleged that he was forced to do that.
In a different interview with Abeiku Santana, the highlife legend mentioned KiKi Banson as the one who was behind the act.
“I am telling you straightforwardly that Kiki was the one who gave me the crown. He was the one who forced me to crown Eugene. When he initially gave it to me, I gave it to one of my boys, Robberman, to put it down. Because it wasn’t my intention, they forced me to do it. If you like, you can call Kiki and confirm whether he wasn’t the one who gave me the crown. Call him right now,” he said.
When the host asked if he was talking about Kiki Banson, Amakye Dede replied: “Why should he do this to me?”
However, Robert Klah, the Head of Public Events and Communication at Charterhouse, has reacted that they knew nothing about the crowning session.
“We did not orchestrate any crowning session. So, I am a bit lost when it comes to the assertion that event organizers are responsible,” he stressed.
